MG car owners turned out to help four-legged friends at a charity drive.
Motorists from Wycombe Area MG Owners Club completed a 60-mile drive from the Royal Standard of England pub in Brindle Lane, Forty Green to Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire on Sunday.
David Lloyd, administrator for the club, said: "We had 66 cars at the Royal Standard of England and the lady from Stokenchurch Dog Rescue also turned up and brought a few dogs along.
"Three cars broke down along the way unfortunately."
The drivers took part in a raffle and competed for the best car' before travelling through the Bucks countryside in aid of Stokenchurch Dog Rescue.
Matthew O'Keefe, landlord of the pub, said: "It went very well. They came for breakfast before meeting up in the car park. Some of them came back later for Sunday dinner.
"We gave them a raffle prize of a meal for two."
The drive raised £530 which will be donated to the dog charity.
